Hello Vince, how did you become a photographer?

Hello! I'm getting a bit old! When I was younger, I used to BMX, I was very into it but after a bad injury, I had to stop for one year. That's how I bought my first camera in order to be able to still hang out with my friends... Little by little, I got published in specialized magazines! It all happened by chance, I never had the ambition to become a photographer.

What are your sources of inspiration?

Ohh my sources are very diverse but I would first say, my friends! I have the chance to be surrounded by very inspiring and creative persons so it helps.

What do you like taking pictures of?

Hum, I would say what surrounds me! So I like to go on adventures!

Are you more into analogue or digital? What's your favorite camera?

I would say digital! Let's face the truth, I mainly take pictures for advertisements to make a living and it's sometimes complicated to do it in analogue, but I continue to take analogue pictures for a lot of my personal projects or when I hang out in the streets... I rarely go out without a camera! And for the camera, I'm in love with a lot of them actually! In digital, I would say the amazing Fuji GFX100 and I have a weakness for the Pentax 6x7 and the Yashica T4.

You photographed your summer with the Lomo LC-A+, tell us a bit more about your adventures!

I have to say that it's a bit particular as I was not in a shooting period... I was on holiday in Burgundy so not very productive but after I went to shoot in the Dolomites, the landscapes are amazing!

How was your trip with our analogue camera?

As it's a compact camera, it's very easy to always have it with you so it's a very great travel companion!!!

Any advice to use the Lomo LC-A+?

I would say to shoot a lot with it! It's quite multi-skilled.

Do you have some news you would like to share?

I have just published my book « Get In » and I'm pretty happy... It's a travel diary with pictures taken all over the world.
